The term has been rolled around the toungue longer than just two years. By then it could have picked up new meanings and/or uses. So dont go on thinking emo was brought up to describe people, it was origally to descibe music. The fashion and the at5titudes came later.

To be honest, emo has been around longer than some people of AO.

Finally...someone actually knows what they're talking about besides me on this subject! Thank you for saying what you did...but to be honest...I don't think anyone listened to either one of us
